Ughh... it's looking like it's not going to be too bad until around midnight. I can't wait to get the phone call to come into work at 1 or 2 in the morning lol. Nothing like cleaning catch basins and moving trees off the road in the middle of a storm.

Anyone know where I can find out if roads are closed? What about travel bans?

Yeqh I checked that before I left. I'm stuck in a parking lot on route 1! My headlights went out and I can't see anything. I'm waiting for a break in the storm to head out again using my fogs...

I was in Somerset an hour ago, just got back to Old Bridge. Roads were starting to flood like when we get a really bad thunderstorm, but this is only the beginning... River road and Landing Lane were already pretty flooded but the river didn't get over the roadway as of 11:30.

Yeah I went to bed at 7:30ish cause I was expecting a call. Now I'm wide awake which sucks cause I'm not going to get called in until tomorrow morning probably 
The roads around here don't look bad, haven't lost power or internet. Shouldn't be too bad of a clean up around town.

It's not supposed to be bad until morning time.
Hopefully the 38,000lb loader doesn't blow away before we clean up
